AngularJS: How to set a variable inside of a template?

How can I avoid having the {{f = ...}} statement in the third line print out the content of forecast[day.iso]?

I want to avoid using forecast[day.iso].temperature and so on for every iteration.

<div ng-repeat="day in forecast_days">
  {{$index}} - {{day.iso}} - {{day.name}}
  {{f = forecast[day.iso]}}
  Temperature: {{f.temperature}}<br>
  Humidity: {{f.humidity}}<br>
  ...
</div>
Solution

  • Use ngInit: https://docs.angularjs.org/api/ng/directive/ngInit

    <div ng-repeat="day in forecast_days" ng-init="f = forecast[day.iso]">
  {{$index}} - {{day.iso}} - {{day.name}}
  Temperature: {{f.temperature}}<br>
  Humidity: {{f.humidity}}<br>
  ...
</div>
